Hi YA! Happy Superbowl Sundaaaaay! I’m now leaning towards the Falcons… where are you at? I’m also leaning towards eating cake for breakfast, lunch, dinner and the rest of forever, but hey. we’re all dreamers… 😉 Kidding! I’m sure they’re all great! I’m just looking forward to the Patriots’ eye candy of a quarterback – that is what’s going to make me watch. AND it’s his 7th Superbowl?!? DAYYYY-um! Good on him.
In all honesty, though, you will most likely find me at the buffet table, trying each and every dish that was brought to the party. It’s just how I roll, and it’s what I call “research”. In the end, it will benefit you and me, both.
